What is The Widening Circle?

NEW:  CONFERENCE 2010:  “BLESSED THAT WE MIGHT BLESS” –> PLEASE CLICK LINK TO THE RIGHT!

The Widening Circle (TWC) is a movement within the Anglican Church of Canada to “affirm and reclaim the traditions of our branch of the Christian faith; one which is orthodox, comprehensive, and catholic.”

We are joining together:

1. to take a stand against making the doctrine and discipline of our national church subservient to the Primates of the Anglican Communion through a proposed Anglican Covenant; and
2. to resist a narrow and exclusive version of Anglicanism, expressed in our own country as resistance to the full inclusion of gays and lesbians in the life of the church.

A full text of our statement to the House of Bishops is posted in “documents.”
